Is there any utility in GUI mode like IOS(Command Line Interface)
for configuring CISCO Routers.

Cisco ConfigMaker is a good one, but remember that working within such GUIs is nothing like the real thing and at times they don't do certain functions as you can do with the manual session. Also there were some compatibility issues as well, where some switches or routers were not supported//

You can use the Cisco configmaker for the configuration where you have to choose the Hardware and afterward you have to choose protocols and ip addresses to implement. But with these all things you will get the bare minimum configuration only which will run the network only.

It will not provide the optimization of varios other features related to protocol/bandwidth provided in the IOS.

Apart from that there are hundred of features in the Cisco router so it is not possible to design the software to provide all the configuration for required features.
